Auld Lang Syne With 2014 In Mind

2013 was a banner year for 5 Alarm Music, but as Bachman-Turner Overdrive once sang “you ain’t seen nothin’ yet!” Before unveiling what’s to come, let’s revel in our glory a bit. It was an honor and privilege to add musical collaboration on Justin Timberlake’s Only When I Walk Away off his newest album The 20/20 Experience – 2 of 2. I wish we could take credit for his sweet dance moves, but alas…..the musical nod will definitely suffice!

Ron Burgundy likes our Sax.

We’re also big with Lemurs.

Even The Biebs approves!

Now that all of the New Years’ confetti is swept up and the Christmas decorations are put away for another 11 months, we’re ready to rock the house even harder in 2014! Here’s a sign of what’s to come:

We are happy to unveil 166 instrumental CDs from Global Graffiti! This treasure trove of sound features everything from traditional Mariachi to classic Jazz to Hip Hop to hard rock and more. Check ’em out!

Are you ready for some FOOTBALL?! Even if you failed PE in high school, you can at least appreciate good tunes right? Click on the football (that oblong brown shape with white stitching for all of you non-sports people!) to hear tracks perfect for the Superbowl or for your all-around listening enjoyment:

The Winter Olympics is the best thing to ever happen to freezing weather! How many times have you watched speed skating and thought, “I can do that!” Lucky for us, we can sit in front of the fire and picture ourselves edging out Apolo Ohno for the Gold Medal while eating potato chips.
